Organisers hold a press conference on July 10, 2018 ahead of the planned launch of Israel's first lunar spacecraft

I suspect there will be a big uptick in "moon landing hoax" and "flat earth" bull**** after they land it.

This is hilarious because the Muslims who worship their moon god will now literally have to look at an Israeli flag every time they want to figure out the start of their calendar month!

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Interesting.

The first thing that came to mind though was this from Mel Brooks:

I know! What a gyp.

[Spok]

So is there a race to the moon between Israel and the Palistinians?

[hal ogen]

Maybe Israel is flying the clouds that they stole from iran there???

[humbleexpert]

Maybe Israel will set up a colony on the moon as a refuge for the Jewish people, since it would be safer to wear a yarmulke there than on the streets of European cities.

You just had to go there, didn't you.

Or Hitler on Ice!

It’s easier to steal clouds from the moon!

[Eleutheria5]

And as they multiply the conspiracy theories, claiming it’s all a hoax, we’ll be starting kibutzim on the dark side, encased in unbreakable plastic bubble compounds with their own air supply, and start growing moon crops and hosting American Space Force troops at hotels and bars.

So, the article didn’t mention in what ways the palestinians are expanding the frontiers of human knowledge in between destroying things others have built

[Ancesthntr]

“Its first task, however, will be to plant an Israeli flag on the moon, organisers said.”

And the second task will be to augment the Earth-based cloud-stealing from Iran.

Jews......In......Space!

Hummus space food sticks?

I'd rather see a permanent Israeli flag on the Temple Mount first.

If tomorrow every Israeli was sent to the moon with basic tools, seeds and air for a year, and the Palestinians were given all of Israel, in a year, Israel would be a s&ithole, the moon would be a paradise and the Palestinians would say they have right of return to the moon.
